From BigGameHunter (biggamehunterca.blogspot.com) comes word that Warners' New Line Cinema continues to develop a big screen version, for producer John Rickard ("Final Destination"), of the 1986 Bally Midway arcade game "Rampage".
Premise has players taking control of gigantic monsters trying to survive against military forces, with each level completed only when a specific city is reduced to rubble.
Up to three simultaneous players control the monsters 'George' (a "King Kong"-like gorilla), 'Lizzie' (a "Godzilla"-like dinosaur), or 'Ralph' (a giant 'werewolf'), created from mutated humans.
When they were humans, George was a normal middle aged man, Lizzie was a youngwoman and Ralph was an elderly man, but they were experimented on at 'Scumlabs'.
As monsters, they raze all buildings in a high-rise city to advance to the next level, eating people and destroying helicopters, tanks, taxis and police cars along the way.
